Diwali

I have been learning about Diwali and this is what it is.


Diwali is the Indian festival of light and is held in late October to early November. The festival lasts for five days. On the first day of the festival a rangoli pattern is made out of coloured powder and put by the front door to welcome visitors.

On the second day Alisha made some sweet called barfi for family and friends.

On the third day the family lights divas (lamps) and fireworks.

On the fourth day it's New Years Day and Alisha has been given  a new sari  by her Grandmother and then will dance and sing at a concert.

On the last day it's Bhai Beej, a special day for brothers and sisters. Then a New Year begins.

Crash Landing

0ne day, James and I were flying a helicopter over a desert when James fainted because it was too hot. I couldh’t fly a helicopter.
Our helicopter crash landed.
It was creepy when the helicopter was falling towards the ground, but we weren’t hurt.
The helicopter was broken.The rotors had fallen off and all the glass was broken and lying all over the ground.
We were stuck in the desert.
We looked around and saw some wolves.
We lit a fire and the wolves slinked away.We repaired the helicopter and flew back to base.

The Wizard of Oz

Tomorrow, we are going to perform The Wizard of Oz in front of our first audience. I am a crow. I have to tease the scarecrows by flapping my arms and running between them and not being scared when they want me to. The Winkees get to sing, "Oh way oh, Winkee oh." It is cool.

New Zealand's Olympic Legends

Olympic Legends
During the Olympics, I watched Nathan Cohen and Joseph Sullivan.
They were rowing in the Olympics to win a gold medal. \
The water was cold and sploshy.
Their boat was long and thin. It had triangles at the front and back. 
The siren went and the rowers started. I thought I knew their strategy, but I didn't. They started off slow but picked up speed and they won the gold medal. 
I was happy because New Zealand had won a gold medal.

The Sea Monster

Mara-ki-hau is a sea monster who lives in a cave under the sea.  
His teeth are long and sharp.  His tongue is long and hollow.  He chases the whales and the fisherman.  
When he is angry, he crashes the waves and it sounds like thunder.  
When he is hungry, he sucks up fish.
